One of the things we often hear from others in the legal profession is that, to be a successful lawyer, you have to fully devote yourself to it. That clients and your work must come before everything else. That if you want a robust personal life, if you want a family, that your law practice won’t be as successful as it could be. You have a choice: law practice, or personal life.

But this is a false choice. Because you don’t have to choose one or the other. You can choose both.

TAKEAWAY: if you want it, you can create a law practice that is successful and also allows you to have a successful personal life.
